New Balance recognizes the significance in giving back to the communities we serve, and through local volunteer initiatives, we aim to create lasting connections and positive impact. Throughout the year, we encourage our associates who have a strong personal connection to a charity or cause to take advantage of our volunteer opportunities. Members of our New Balance Iberia team, along with their families, supported Montes de Viso (Redondela) last month by reforesting damaged land and planting 60 birch trees. Montes de Viso is a forest located 4km away from our NB Iberia office, and in 2017, the land suffered from a devastating fire. The volunteer activity allowed our associates and their families to learn first-hand about the work community members carry out in the local forests, including sustainable forest management, reforestation and the benefits of biodiversity. Thank you to all our associates who participated in this event!

Independent since 1906, we empower people through sport and craftsmanship to create positive change around the world.
About us
In 1906, New Balance began as a humble one-man operation founded on the belief that “we were born to move,” and has since grown into an international corporation, selling footwear and apparel in over 120 countries and employing over 8,000 associates worldwide. Our mission has always been to support the performance of athletes, and with an unparalleled focus on quality and craftsmanship, we’ve come to set the standard for comfort and fit in an industry all too often driven by hype. We’re incredibly proud of our history and how far we’ve come, but companies don’t thrive for over a century by being content. Whether it’s setting a new style trend, retooling our manufacturing process, or building a new state-of-the-art headquarters, we pursue innovation with a spirit of fearless independence. As the only privately held major footwear company in the world, we’re free to do things our way, pushing limits and testing boundaries as we continually reimagine what could be. After all, the status quo isn’t static. But doing things our way wouldn’t mean much if we weren’t also doing them the right way. We invest in our associates as they invest in us, and as we move forward, we make a point of giving back, supporting communities around us through ambitious philanthropic efforts and involvement programs. We are a company that cares, and our culture is one of integrity and teamwork where together we become greater than the sum of our parts.

New Balance is committed to making a positive impact in the communities where we live, work and play. We are thrilled New Balance Foundation (NBF) continues this tradition through its work with the St. Louis Area Foodbank. NBF’s donation of $50,000 to the St. Louis Area Foodbank’s School Market initiative will help alleviate child hunger in the bi-state area by providing nutritious food to children at their school to take home to their families. NBF is proud to support the St. Louis Area Foodbank’s efforts towards nourishing children and combating child hunger, igniting a wave of positive change that will resonate throughout families across the region.

With New Balance’s Boston headquarters as the backdrop, 200 associates from our retail and cross-functional divisions came together last month for a three-day North America store managers meeting. Among the attendees were 135 store, area, district and regional managers from our U.S. and Canada owned stores. Gathered under one roof, associates participated in breakout sessions tailored to developing leadership skills, aligned on the path to achieving our brand’s North America retail vision and celebrated their colleagues with an awards night, recognizing years of service and outstanding performance. As synergy ignited throughout the venue, associates came together for a team building exercise, where they built and donated 40 bicycles for a local youth organization. Our associates left the event with invaluable insights and fresh perspectives that will help drive our business initiatives forward. Thank you to everyone who participated in this year’s event – check out some photos from the experience below!
